Key Features of Your Device

Getting Started

Prepare Your Device

This section helps you to assemble your
device.

Install the SIM Card

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are
provided with a plug-in SIM card. During activation,
your SIM card will be loaded with your subscription
details, such as your PIN, available optional services,
and many others features.

Warning: The plug-in SIM card information and its
contacts can be easily damaged by scratching or
bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or
removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of
small children.

1. Open the SIM card slot cover and turn to expose
the slot.

2. Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card slot
(as shown) until the card locks into place.

Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into
the device and that the angled corner of the card is
positioned as shown.

Caution: If the card is not inserted correctly, the device
will not detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into
the slot if the SIM is not detected.

5

Prepare Your Device

Getting Started

Install a Memory Card

You can use an optional microSD or microSDHC
memory card (not included) to expand available
memory space.

For more information on installing a memory card,
see “Memory Card (SD Card) ” on page 101.

Charge the Battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard
Li-Ion battery. A Wall/USB Charger (Charging Head
and USB cable) is included with the device, for
charging the battery.

The battery comes partially charged. You must fully
charge the battery before using your device for the
first time. A fully discharged battery requires up to four
hours of charge time. After the first charge, you can
use the device while charging.

Caution: Use only Samsung-approved charging devices
and batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to
maximize battery life. Using other accessories may
invalidate your warranty and may cause damage.

Warning: Your device comes with a charger (charging
head and USB cable) to charge your device from any
110/220 VAC outlet.

6

Prepare Your Device

Getting Started

1. Insert the USB cable into the port.

2. Connect the USB cable to the charging head, then
plug the charging head into a standard ACpower
outlet.

3. When charging is complete, unplug the charging
head from the power outlet and remove the
USBcable from the device.

When to Charge the Battery

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of
talk time remain, the device sounds a warning tone at
regular intervals.

In this condition, your device conserves its remaining
battery power, not by turning off the back light, but by
entering the dimming mode.

When the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off.

► For a quick check of your battery level, glance at

the battery charge indicator located in the Status
Bar of your device’s display. Solid color (
indicates a full charge.

You can also choose to display a percentage value.
Having a percentage value onscreen can provide a
better idea of the remaining charge on the battery.
For more information, see “Battery” on page 104.
